Recommended Pairings
Provenance & Craft
Made in Leicestershire, England, this knit is produced using 100% merino wool sourced from the highlands of the Andes Mountains in Peru, a region renowned for producing some of the world’s finest merino fibres.
Our yarn is selected for its natural softness, resilience, and ability to regulate temperature, qualities that are enhanced through traditional British knitwear techniques refined over generations. Each garment is knitted with precision and care, ensuring lasting warmth, comfort, and durability.
With the majority of our production carried out in-house, we maintain close control over every stage of the process, from yarn selection to finished garment. This direct approach allows us to uphold consistent quality, reduce unnecessary intermediaries, and ensure fair, responsible manufacturing practices.
The result is knitwear defined by honest materials, skilled craftsmanship, and longevity, designed to be worn regularly and to improve with time.
The Merino We Use
This jumper is made from 100% chunky merino wool, selected for its natural softness, resilience, and breathability.
Our chunky merino is sourced from a Peruvian cooperative, where high-altitude conditions produce fibres prized for their purity, strength, and comfort.
Our extra-fine merino comes from prestigious Italian spinners, including Zegna Baruffa (Est. 1850) and Lanerossi (Est. 1817), mills renowned for generations of expertise in spinning exceptional yarns.
Merino fibres are significantly finer than traditional wool, allowing them to bend gently against the skin rather than pricking it. Careful sourcing and specialist spinning produce a yarn that feels softer, wears better, and retains its quality over time, reflecting the level of craftsmanship involved in the finished garment.
Details That Define the Difference
A carefully shaped neckline and reinforced collar help maintain structure and comfort, even after repeated wear.
Clean interior finishing and reinforced seams ensure durability without compromising softness against the skin.
Natural fibre elasticity allows the garment to move comfortably with the body while recovering its shape over time.
Carefully finished cuffs and hems provide a clean silhouette and help prevent stretching or distortion with wear.
Benefits of Merino Wool
Temperature Regulating
Traps or releases heat depending on your body temperature, making it suitable for both warm and cold conditions.
Odour Resistant
Moisture-wicking fibres move perspiration away from the body, helping keep you dry and fresh.
Lightweight & Resilient
Naturally crimped fibres create a yarn that is lightweight, warm, strong, elastic, and holds its shape well.
Soft & Skin Friendly
Incredibly fine fibres create a smooth, soft texture suitable for even the most sensitive skin.
Low Maintenance
Requires less washing than synthetics and is naturally crease-resistant.
Sustainable
A renewable natural fibre that will eventually biodegrade.
Why Merino Wool Makes the Difference
Across softness, warmth, breathability, and durability, merino wool offers the most balanced performance of any natural fibre,
making it best suited to everyday premium knitwear.
Designed to be worn regularly and to retain its shape, softness, and performance over years, not seasons.
Softness
Merino fibres are significantly finer than traditional wool, delivering softness without the fragility or short lifespan of fibres like cashmere.
Warmth
Naturally crimped fibres trap heat efficiently, providing warmth comparable to heavier wools without excessive bulk.
Breathability
Unlike synthetics or tightly woven fibres, merino allows moisture and excess heat to escape, keeping the wearer comfortable across changing conditions.
Durability
Merino offers long-term resilience and shape recovery, outperforming delicate luxury fibres while remaining more refined than coarse, heavy-duty wools.
